Who are these packs suitable for?

Households sharing them at home

If you’re buying waffles for several coffee breaks, you could start with a pack of regular stroopwafels. Jumbo lists a 468 g pack, while PLUS has a 480 g one. Also check how many waffles or servings the pack contains.

People who want to serve smaller waffles

For guests or a plate to put on the table, mini waffles may be more convenient than full-size ones. PLUS lists a bag of 25 Daelmans mini stroopwafels and a 300 g own-brand mini pack.

People who need gluten-free options

A regular sharing pack may not be suitable. Jumbo explicitly labels its 240 g Lekker Vrij van Gluten Stroop Wafels as gluten-free. For this product too, check the current packaging for information about other allergens.

What should you look for when choosing?

First decide whether you’re looking for regular waffles to keep at home, small ones to share or a pack with a required dietary feature. Then compare the pack size and the label information for the specific products you’re considering.

What to consider What to check before buying Who it matters to
Stocking up on regular waffles Compare the net weight and the stated number of waffles or servings with how many you want to share at home. If I want to spread the waffles across several coffee breaks, the pack needs to suit the number of people eating them. Around 46% of consumers prioritise having enough regular waffles.
Serving smaller waffles Check how many minis are in the pack and whether it suits the way you want to serve them. When I have guests, I’d rather put small waffles on the table than serve everyone a whole one. For around 36% of consumers, easy serving is the main concern.
Dietary needs and allergens Read the current allergen information; if gluten-free is essential, check for an explicit gluten-free label. If someone can’t eat every kind of stroopwafel, I want to know which pack is suitable for sharing first. This is the priority for around 18% of consumers.

Common mistakes when choosing

  • Judging by the size of the bag alone

    Net weight and the number of waffles don’t tell you the same thing. Jumbo lists 12 servings in its 468 g pack, while the Daelmans sharing bag at PLUS contains 25 mini stroopwafels.

    Check both the pack size and the number of waffles or servings before deciding what will be enough for the occasions when you’re sharing them.

  • Assuming every guest can eat regular stroopwafels

    PLUS’s product information for regular stroopwafels lists wheat, milk and soya, among other ingredients. A gluten-free label on its own tells you nothing about other allergens.

    Ask in advance which ingredients need to be avoided, and check the current allergen information on the exact pack you’re buying.

  • Applying one waffle’s nutritional values to another

    The Netherlands Nutrition Centre lists nutritional values for an extra-large 40 g stroopwafel. That serving isn’t directly comparable with a mini or a waffle from another brand.

    For an accurate comparison, use the nutritional information on the packs you’ve chosen, both per 100 g and per serving.

Daelmans makes regular stroopwafels and minis; PLUS lists a bag containing 25 mini stroopwafels.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose a pack of stroopwafels to share throughout the week?

Compare the net weight with the number of waffles or servings, and think about how many people will be eating them. Jumbo, for example, lists 468 g with 12 servings, while PLUS lists a regular 480 g pack. For smaller waffles to share, PLUS also lists a Daelmans bag containing 25 minis.

Can I choose regular stroopwafels if someone needs to avoid gluten?

If gluten-free is essential, only choose a product that is explicitly labelled gluten-free. The product information for PLUS’s regular stroopwafels lists cereals containing gluten; Jumbo’s 240 g Lekker Vrij van Gluten Stroop Wafels are labelled gluten-free. Check the current label for these too.

Which allergens should I check before sharing stroopwafels?

Check the packaging for any allergens the people you’re sharing with need to avoid. PLUS’s regular stroopwafels list wheat, milk and soya, among other ingredients; a gluten-free variety isn’t automatically free from other allergens.

How should I store an opened pack of stroopwafels?

Follow the storage instructions on the pack you’ve chosen and seal it well after use. Jumbo says to store its regular butter stroopwafels in a cool, dry place; the PLUS stroopwafels mentioned above should be stored in a dry, dark place.
